This is what's so awesome about the new age of music we're living through right now. Music that would have never made it through the traditional old guard gatekeepers is as front and center as the big dogs with millions of downloads. Take Yoodoo Park, for example. Working under the name GRMLN, the 19 year old musician (that's what I said) has a great new song on Car Park Records.

GRMLN is out of the southern California scene, and is mixing fuzzy garage with southern California beach punk vibes, albeit in a more ambient way. His vibey new song "Scum" is right out of the underground power pop punk playbook, but comes off meandering like a walk on the beach. This is a good thing.

We're told that "Yoodoo is getting a band together in his parent's garage for imminent touring.," which is so apropos. Check him out and give him support at his Facebook.
